Chapter 775
The Woman From Hell
She started nagging, and I felt like there was a fly beside my ear.
When I started to get a little annoyed, I said, "Stop nagging, Ma'am. I have noted down everything
you said."
She stopped talking and beckoned to the shopkeeper." I want the one she's wearing, the tweed coat
hanging over there, and the few I picked earlier."
Another shopkeeper entered the dressing room and brought out the clothes I changed out of earlier.
Cassey waved her hand. "You don't have to pack the ones she changed out of. Just throw them
away."
"Throw them away?" I widened my eyes.
My voice was a little loud, startling Cassey and the two shopkeepers.
"If we don't throw them out, are we supposed to keep them until they lay grow mold?" Cassey
pointed at my forehead. "Don't tell me that they can still be worn. If you wear clothes of a luxury
brand from 800 years ago, theyâll not even look half as decent as the ones bought on the side of the
road. Others might even think that youâre a nouveau riche gone broke. Please donât embarrass
Theo."
A womanâs poisonous mouth could kill.
The clothes I changed out of were bought by Theo three years ago. I brought them to Zenon, and
because they were comfortable to wear, I wore them for many years and was not concerned if they
were outdated or not.
Now that she mentioned it, I felt terribly outdated.
Perhaps because I was accompanied by a crazy shopper who could drive my desire for
consumption, I later bought a lot of things as well.
Cassey drove her car here and so did I, so there was no issue with us carrying these things home
ourselves.
However, Cassey still gave Caleb a call and used a spoiled tone as soon as she spoke to him,
"Caleb, I'm in City Square Mall and have bought a lot of things. I canât carry them myself. Can you
come over and carry them for me?"
I never once thought that a straightforward and boyish girl could use such a gentle tone when
speaking to her lover.
Sure enough, the power of love was truly great.
When she hung up the phone, I could not help but criticize her. "Can't you lift these things to the car
yourself?" "Why are you such a straight thinker!" Cassey sighed." When a woman should show
weakness, she must show weakness so her lover will know that she needs him."
After a pause, she continued, "Once you have a husband, you need to take it as far as not being
able to twist open a bottle cap, not being able to lift heavy objects, and refusing to cross the road
with puddles. Why else do you need a husband?"
I froze, actually finding it hard to refute.
Cassey took my shoulder and said with a smile, "A woman can be brave and face the storm and
everything else when sheâs alone. Itâs not because she wants to, but because there's no one she
can rely on, hence she has no choice. But once a woman starts dating, she can shed her armor and
become soft. Why else do you think love exists?"
I pursed my lips. "Is that really the case?"
"Therefore, leave all the dirty work and annoying affairs to the men. If they can't handle it, then weâll
step in and help them out. Men have very strong egos after all. If you donât need him every time,
he'll think that he's useless."
I stroked my chin and began to contemplate her words.
Seeing that I was daydreaming, she blinked and pulled out her phone to make a call. "Have you not
gotten off work yet, Mr. Busy Grant?"
I widened my eyes to look at her. "Why are you giving
him a call?"
She winked at me and said, "Your wife bought a lot of things and can't carry them herself. Hurry up
and come over to carry them for her."
Perhaps she was the only one brave enough to say words like this to Theo.
